One day after the running of the 138th Kentucky Derby, a man’s body has been foundin one of the barns at Churchill Downs. The body was found this morning around 5AM in barn number 8. The unidentified dead man’s body was found a few barns away from where Kentucky Derby winner I’ll Have Another is kept. Louisville Metro Police spokeswoman Alicia Smiley stated that it was too early to determine if the person died of natural causes and are awaiting a cause of death from the coroner.

Louisville police spokeswoman Alicia Smiley says authorities were called early Sunday morning to a barn on the backside of the track where the derby took place the night before.

Smiley says police are conducting a death investigation, and a coroner had been called to the scene. She says the body is believed to be a man.

The investigation is under way at barn eight, just four barns away from where I’ll Have Another is kept.

Bizarre, finding dead bodies the day after the Run for the Roses is becoming as common as woman wearing hats and mint Juleps. Last year following the Kentucky Derby, 24 year old Michael Baze, a Kentucky Derby jockey, was found dead in his vehicle at Churchill Downs.
